6) Instead of being tricked, Alstom, Siemens, and their rivals Bombardier Inc. and Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd. agreed to hand over some of their most precious intellectual property with their eyes wide open. The vast majority of the trains sold under the 2004 and 2005 contracts were built in China, with explicit technology transfer terms written into the agreements to allow that. Alstom, for what it’s worth, has long criticized Siemens and Kawasaki for including their most innovative high-speed rail know-how in those deals. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/alstom-and-siemens-show-how-not-to-deal-with-china/2019/02/06/7f32e9d6-2a05-11e9-906e-9d55b6451eb4_story.html?utm_term=.d0b28cb335cb

Rubio (R-FL), the chairman of the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship, faulted CEOs for focusing too much on the next quarter and not enough on the next generation....“What it's resulted in is that you can become a very profitable company that returns a lot of money to shareholders by taking your productive capacity and sending it to China or by turning over your intellectual property because they're allowing you market access, which is generating new revenue,”Rubio added. “That's great for the short- to mid-term. Your stock performance can be very good. Your shareholders are going to be very happy. But it's devastating for American workers, and in the long term it's devastating for America....At its core this is very simple: China is allowed to do anything they want in our economy and in Western economies, but our firms are allowed to do very little of anything and pay a tremendous price over there.”https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/paloma/daily-202/2019/05/15/daily-202-marco-rubio-slams-ceos-for-bad-china-deals-short-term-thinking-and-not-investing-in-u-s-workers/5cdaf5841ad2e544f001dd1a/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.d34bb18d47bb...............................................................................9) 3-28-19 U.S. tech companies working with China on AI initiatives “will help an authoritarian government assert control over its own people…and it will enable the Chinese military to take advantage of the technology that is developed in the United States,” Chairman of Joint Chiefs Dunford said on 3-21-19.... it’s “noteworthy that some of Google’s current and potential partners in China, including Fudan University and Tsinghua University, are involved in and committed to this national strategy of military-civil fusion,” Kania says....Other U.S. tech giants such as Amazon, Apple, IBM, and Microsoft all operate research centers in China that include projects focused on developing AI applications or cultivating local Chinese engineering talent. https://spectrum.ieee.org/tech-talk/aerospace/military/pentagon-warns-silicon-valley-about-aiding-chinese-military....................................................................................................10) 3-23-2015 BEIJING (Reuters) - IBM Corp will share technology with Chinese firms and will actively help build China’s industry,

It exported telecommunications gear and semiconductors to China and employed around 600 people to market its products. With increasing competition and production costs, Motorola decided to shift some of its manufacturing activities to China. In 1992, Motorola established Motorola (China) Electronics Ltd. and opened a manufacturing facility at Tianjin city in North China. Initially, Motorola manufactured pagers, semiconductors, two-way radios and automobile electronics in China. http://www.icmrindia.org/casestudies/catalogue/Business%20Strategy2/Motorola-in-China.htm.........................................................................................

18) 11-28-18 Chinese scientists have made no secret of their ambitions to one day eclipse GPS in both technical precision and international sway. Eventually, BeiDou’s global network will have 35 satellites in orbit, with the highest ratio over the Asia Pacific region for greater accuracy.

BeiDou’s engineers are looking to best the US in the dimension of time as well. Beyond positioning and navigation, GPS satellites currently set international time and frequency standards. …

China’s rapidly modernising military, the People’s Liberation Army, also relies on BeiDou. Both GPS and BeiDou contain at least two signal channels. One for commercial use is capable of fixing a location for civilian users precise to 2.5m to 5m; a separate channel several times more exact is reserved exclusively for state and military use, whose encryption codes can be given to allies for use in times of emergency.

For decades, the technical superiority of GPS gave the US unrivalled capabilities in global mapping and location services, expertise it sometimes extends to a small number of Nato allies. China has been exploring a similar arrangement by offering to build ground-equipment bases in Pakistan and south-east Asian nations in exchange for a higher-precision BeiDou service to military and government users there. https://www.ft.com/content/3c2ca48e-f2eb-11e8-ae55-df4bf40f9d0d
